Answer 1

1. You can remove the STATIC_ROOT line
2. Or you can create another static folder in different directory. For suppose the directory is: project\static Now update:

    STATICFILES_DIRS = [
        os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'project/static/')
    ]
    STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')

Whatever you do the main point is STATICFILES_DIRS and STATIC_ROOT should not contain same directory.

I know it's been a long time but hope the new buddies can get help from it
